To prepare for the next fishing season, the men make lobster traps. To do so, they must cut the roots of a strange tree: the pandanus.
An older fisherman shows Roland how to make the trap. In Futuna, the older generation possesses all the knowledge. These men are the living guardians of what is generally called, custom.
A new season is beginning. It's time to fish for lobster. It doesn't begin until after the flying fish season is over. There is no official law requiring the respect and preservation of natural resources. It is all regulated by custom.
